Nothing Ukraine seems to be doing recently has warranted praise from its eastern neighbor. Not diversification in its suppliers of nuclear fuel (RIA Novosti, PA Tribune Review), nor honoring 1932-33 famine victims (Guardian, UNIAN, Observer) and most certainly not its Nato aspirations. (UNIAN, UNIAN)

But most distressing for me, is the silence regarding gas negotiations. Is "no news, good news"??? "Naftogaz Ukrainy and Gazprom plan to resume their gas talks in Moscow on April 3. “Our delegation will leave for Moscow tomorrow for further talks,” Naftogaz Ukrainy chief spokesman Valentin Zemlyansky said on Wednesday. He said Naftogaz Ukrainy Board Chairman Oleg Dubina was having consultations with the government to specify the Ukrainian delegation’s position. It was reported earlier that the next round of talks between the two companies had been held in Moscow on March 31 and April 1, but no details were disclosed." (Itar Tass)

And oh yeah, Naftohaz is bankrupt.  (not morally, silly... financially ;)
